I did try making it in GB Studio, but unfortunately my art didn't work with the memory limitations of the Game Boy. I will probably have to size it down for a rom version and rework the way some things look. There will also probably be a lot of tile swapping, so it's work for a future project.

Thank you for reading! And those are excellent suggestions. My friends and I used to do small origami projects out of our notebook paper all the time, and I had totally forgotten about that :)
You should definitely try the organizer thing! You could use your mechanical pencil to do the measurements and markings, and that would make the whole thing even more special.
It's really neat seeing how everyone interpreted the theme differently, and the results are in so many different styles! I've put my inspiration on my submission page, but I'll rephrase it here. The idea of "balance" reminded me of balancing lighting, so I went for a portrait with very dramatic differences between light and dark. The end result is a bit simple overall, but I like how it turned out.
The one I have on my website uses this script:

It won't work out of the box, though, since it needs a few older script functions removed. Once those are fixed it works fine.
This is such a beautiful piece of worldbuilding! It had me captivated during the entire day that I read it, and I have been thinking about it since. Not even the worms bit so much as the idiosyncrasies of the people described. I like the insults they hurl at their gods and the way they see their world. I feel like they are real and live somewhere on the other side of the ocean.
